The combinations formula is nCr = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}
n = complete value set     r = desired goal
to find combinations we find all combos for 5,6,7,8,and 9 and add them together.
which come out as 126, 84, 36, 9 and 1
Therefore there are 256 combinations

velikii [3]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of exponents

a^{-m} ⇔ \frac{1}{a^{m} } and a^{0} = 1

Substitute the values of x into 4^{-x}

x = 0 → 4^{0} = 1 ⇒ a = 1

x = 2 → 4^{-2} = \frac{1}{4^{2} } = \frac{1}{16}, hence

b = \frac{1}{16}

x = 4 → 4^{-4} = \frac{1}{4^{4} } = \frac{1}{256}, hence

c = \frac{1}{256}

Chris took a vacation trip to maine, where sales tax on taxable items is 5%. in maine, prepared food and lodging are taxed an ad
12345 [234]
So, it's just an annoying problem. Keep the tax rates in mind for each thing.
$70 of souvenirs mean the tax is 5% since it is not prepared food, lodging, or auto rentals.
$580 on prepared food means that has 7% tax because it is special.
$620 on the car has a 10% tax, as stated in the problem.
So do 70(1.05)+580(1.07)+620(1.1) to get $1376.1.0
